Despite the fact that many people now don’t believe in God or anything, higher powers exist, both light and dark. And, as in ancient times, demons still inhabit people. Rituals of exorcism will help to cope with this. But there is not always a need to look for an exorcist - you can expel a demon from another person or from yourself on your own, at home. The main thing is faith, desire and prayer.

A person can perfectly understand that someone has moved into him. He feels that a feeling of aggression awakens in him, then he is very strongly drawn to alcohol, and when he drinks, he becomes doubly aggressive. It's like someone is directing from the outside.

It’s not for nothing that they say that it’s like a demon has taken over. This doesn't have to be taken literally. A demon is a kind of energetic substance that can penetrate a very susceptible person. You can get rid of it like this. When you meet a flock of crows on the street and hear them cawing, immediately say:

“The little demon played with me and got down.

Get away from me, from my liver,

From my spleen to a flock of crows.

Don't bother me anymore. Truly!

Not everyone knows that the cause of many troubles and diseases are entities, inhabitants of the subtle world, evil spirits. So, alcoholism, drug addiction and much more (even tinnitus) can be their manifestations.

For example, everything is outwardly fine in the family. The man is married and has two children. He doesn’t drink or smoke, but if something happens to him, he can cause a scandal and beat his wife. At these moments he hates everyone.

This is called possession - a demon has possessed a person and needs to be cast out. First, you need to go to church and, after confessing, order a prayer service for your son’s health. Take home holy water and 3 candles.

During the ritual, the possessed person must be in the next room. You should read the “Our Father” prayer 7 times and sprinkle the door or wall behind which it is located with holy water, then light a candle and say (quietly, but clearly and firmly):

“In the name of my Lord Jesus Christ and all His apostles and saints equal to the apostles, I conjure and command you, unclean spirit that has settled in my (son/husband/daughter/wife/father/mother) (name): go away, go away now! »

Then put out the candle. Sprinkle the wall or door with holy water again, light the next candle, and repeat the words. Put out the candle. Repeat the ritual with water, light the third candle and continue:

“Lord, have mercy on my (son/husband/daughter/wife/father/mother), help him/her in his/her endeavors, do not leave him/her on the way! Amen, amen, amen!

Put out the last candle, cross yourself three times, and read the “Our Father.” Take the candle stubs to the cemetery and bury them there. This way you can overcome obsession.

Sometimes you can hear people say about a person: “He’s unrecognizable, he’s just gone berserk!” And he was always so balanced.” The words spoken in passing speak for themselves - a demon has possessed a person.

It’s quite easy to pick it up - just give free rein to dark thoughts and bad deeds, not follow the rules when doing fortune-telling or performing a magical ritual, or fall into despondency or anger.

And now the person is no longer recognizable. He himself suffers: he suffers from headaches, mood swings, and attacks of aggression. An ancient conspiracy will help you protect yourself from evil spirits and prevent them from taking over your soul and body.

“Heavenly powers, overshadow me, God’s servant (name). With your grace, do not allow the accursed demon to reach my body and soul. Take the Unclean Spirit, cursed neither moss nor swamp, beyond the gates of hell, into the barren desert, into a hole, into thistles, wormwood, to die, he will live forever, but he will not come close to me. To my words, the lock and the key, now and forever. Amen".

This conspiracy blocks the channels through which the demon can penetrate the body and soul of a person.

When you are consumed by anger or resentment towards someone, try to forgive. If you are haunted by thoughts of revenge, then first of all you need to forget about the offender and take care of your soul. The desire to take revenge speaks of the possession of an evil spirit, the spirit of vengeance.

Such a force with its destructive energy can fall on you. It also often happens that an evil spirit moves in out of grief. To drive him out, write letters.

State everything you would like to say to the offender, ask for forgiveness yourself and read the plot from the pain of your soul:

“(Name) was walking along the road and found grass.

The bitter grass has settled in the soul,

Bitter grief attracts (name)’s soul

It's drying up from melancholy. You blow, the winds

Southern ones, blow the goryun-grass out of (name),

Let the melancholy come out with smoke and melt away

With the wind, drops will seep into the ground.

There is no bitter grass in (name)’s soul.”

Silver is a metal that is perfect for protective amulets. Our Slavic ancestors also used it as a talisman against evil spirits. You will need a flat piece of silver, preferably in the shape of a circle.

A silver coin is also suitable for this, only all the bulges on it are the denomination, etc. - will need to be sanded. On a clean surface, you need to apply certain marks with paint created specifically for metal, or scratch them out.

First, the sign of your horoscope is applied to the plaque, and then the symbol of its element - earth, water, fire or air. Then the animal of the year of your birth (according to the Eastern calendar) is depicted. All these signs are easy to find in specialized literature.

After - your date of birth and name. The list is completed by your lucky number - for example, the day of your first date with your spouse or the purchase of a new apartment, or in general any number that you like, which is associated with any successful events in your life.

It doesn’t matter whether you paint your talisman on one or both sides - do it the way you want. If you cut out the inscriptions, they are unlikely to be erased soon.

And if you used special paints, you can top coat them with varnish intended for metal. You can wear this talisman either on your body - on a chain or cord - or simply store it at home among your personal belongings.

If noise in your left ear bothers you and literally drives you crazy, and the doctor doesn’t find any abnormalities, you should know that this is how the devil that has clung to you may manifest itself.

This evil spirit constantly lives behind the left shoulder, but sometimes it dozes and does not reveal itself, and sometimes it becomes active and begins to whisper into the ear words calling for bad deeds, while promising an abundance of all kinds of benefits.

A person perceives these whispers as discomfort in the ear:

• tickle,
• drilling,
• movement of a foreign body, etc.

You can get rid of this scourge like this: at an intersection, throw a pinch of salt over your left shoulder and say:

“The Devil has salt in his eyes and pain in his hooves, but I have a guardian angel and a shield that will protect me from the Devil. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Amen. Amen".

After that, go home without stopping or talking to anyone.

Demons enter the souls of people, turning their lives into hell on earth. And only a special prayer, which in Orthodoxy is also called a rebuke, can one cope with evil spirits. In the Trinity-Sergius Lavra, demons are cast out by the most powerful exorcist in Russia, Archimandrite German. Our correspondent went to Sergiev Posad to see the ceremony with her own eyes.

There's nowhere for an apple to fall in church

From Moscow to Sergiev Posad is just an hour by train. In the carriage I wear a cord with a small silver cross around my neck. I haven’t yet crossed the gates of the monastery, and I’m already uneasy: what if a demon expelled from a person comes to inhabit me?

Archimandrite German reprimands those possessed by evil spirits in the gateway church of John the Baptist. Most Orthodox priests consider mass reprimands to be extremely dangerous, since in church people, as a rule, are open and you can not only not get rid of your own demon, but also catch someone else’s. But the Trinity exorcist is not embarrassed by the opinions of his colleagues. Although, for the sake of decency, there is a notice on the door of the temple stating that before reprimanding you should receive a blessing from your priest. I hesitantly grab the handle and go inside. I climb up a long narrow staircase, the space around me shrinks, and I feel scared again. But here is the last step - and in front of me is the entrance to the church hall. It’s half an hour before the service, but there’s nowhere for an apple to fall. There are also crowds of people in the next room; I have difficulty finding a free place near the grating through which the altar is visible.

I had previously only seen such a number of believers at a service during an Easter service. A guy of about twenty is dozing on the stone floor listening to rap music from the player. His elderly father and mother wait intently, shifting from foot to foot. Meanwhile, a gypsy woman with a tired face tries to calm the crying child. There are many mothers with children and quite handsome middle-aged men and women in the church. I study the situation, my legs begin to buzz from standing for a long time, but the service does not begin at the agreed time.

“Father Herman is always about twenty minutes late so that people can tune in spiritually,” explains my neighbor.

– Why are there so many people? Is everyone really possessed by demons? – I continue the conversation.

- Well, what are you talking about! - my interlocutor reassures me. - This is a general service, Father Herman scolds everyone - both the sick and the possessed.
Our conversation is interrupted by screams. Some woman felt sick from the stuffiness, they asked her to give her some water.

An inhuman howl rang out in the crowd

An elderly servant in black vestments appears at the icons. She asks those present to open the windows. Then they explained to me that demons who left the body of the possessed during the service fly out through the windows. And finally a priest with a huge gray beard appears - this is Father German. A reverent silence freezes in the hall, the archimandrite begins to read a sermon. I grab my notepad and pen, but immediately forget about them, dumbfounded with surprise.

“The demon can only be conquered by fasting and prayer,” says the priest. – No pills or dirt will help. Demons settle in the internal organs of a person, destroy blood vessels, heart, kidneys. In women, these are often veins.

“It turns out that demons live in all people who have something in pain! So, my chronic gastritis is also a demonic obsession?!”

Father Herman, as if answering my silent question, begins to reproach sinners who commit unseemly acts, thereby opening the way into their bodies for demons.

“Everyone seemed to have gone crazy.” Women smoke, drink, wear pants. They watch films that destroy the soul... - Father Herman continues.

He ends his speech with words about the Antichrist and the Apocalypse. Then the priest warns that he will read a special prayer against demons, it only affects the baptized, the rest must leave, and all those remaining must have Orthodox crosses.

The service continues, and I catch myself thinking that this is the most ordinary prayer service - the priest says something, the parishioners are baptized, and I came here in vain. And suddenly... somewhere in the crowd a strange sound is heard. It gets louder and I realize that it is... a dog howling!!! The crowd in the hall presses against the wall: I rise on tiptoe and see a quite decent-looking lady squirming on the floor in convulsions. Her wild howl makes your ears pop. The unfortunate woman is baptized and sprinkled with holy water, after which she calms down a little...

Individual reporting for wealthy clients

Without waiting for the end of the service, I go down the stairs. At the exit, Father Herman is guarded by two men in tracksuits and knitted hats. We start a conversation.

“I’ve known Father Herman for twenty years,” says the most well-fed one. - He is the best exorcist.

– Do you think I can talk to him?

- It is unlikely. If you want a separate appointment, a special approach is needed. Father chastises both the sick and the possessed individually behind closed doors. It all depends on the price of the issue. I myself am from the Tver region, I came to ask for a fellow countrywoman. She has cancer. Here, I prepared in advance,” the man shows a thick envelope.

Father Herman appears on the stairs, my interlocutor rushes to meet him. They step aside, the envelope ends up in the hands of the archimandrite. Father Herman advises something in the man’s ear. Several more people try to make their way to the priest, but they are pushed back by “bodyguards” in robes. Herman quickly leaves the temple and gets into a black Porsche Cayenne with tinted windows.

Help "ZhG"

In the Christian Church, Jesus Christ is considered the first exorcist. The Bible contains numerous descriptions of how he cast out demons and healed the afflicted. “Then they brought to Him a demon-possessed man, blind and dumb; and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb began to speak and see” (Gospel of Matthew (12:22). As it is said in the Gospel, Christ transferred demons from human bodies into pigs and commanded them to drown themselves.

The modern rite of exile in Orthodoxy can be seen in Pavel Lungin’s film “The Island”. Exorcism also exists in other faiths; it is especially often practiced in Catholicism.

Possessed people need help from doctors

Olga Arnold, psychotherapist, candidate of psychological sciences:

– People who convulse at church services, of course, are not possessed by any demons. Most often we are talking about a hysterical attack, that is, it is not even a serious mental illness, but a character trait. Possessed people unconsciously tune themselves into a trance state. Exorcism can do a lot of harm here; such people need the help of a psychotherapist.

Prayer from demons - how to get rid of the evil spirits living inside a person

Prayer from demons can protect a person who has become a victim of evil spirits. If demons appear to you, evil spirits live in your home, or you suspect that demons have settled inside you, prayers that drive out dark forces are described below.

In what cases is a prayer from demons read?

Despite the fact that modern man is surrounded by an equally modern world, in which there is almost no room left for legends and ancient traditions, demons still exist. They can appear to a person, live in his house and even occupy his body.

There are no barriers for demons. Neither thick walls nor reliable door locks will stop them. Only prayer from demons can stop evil spirits and drive them back to hell. Prayer can protect from any evil and evil spirits. It is no coincidence that the latter cannot be in places where prayers are often heard. It is believed that it does not happen in churches and monasteries. However, there are known cases like Padre Pio’s fight with Satan in his own cell, and many also believe in the existence of a church demon, but this is a separate topic for discussion.

In order to expel evil spirits from the house, you should stock up on holy water, an icon and church candles. Sprinkle walls, windows, doors and corners with holy water, circle them with candles, and carry the icon with you during this process. Church incense is also suitable, which can be used to fumigate a room. Evil spirits are also afraid of wormwood smoke. While you are doing this cleansing of your home, you should read any of the prayers that cast out demons. They are listed below.

If you encounter evil spirits, keep in mind that they can not only scare you, but also seriously harm you. Demons are capable of many things, and a meeting with them can result in either mild fright or death. Knowledgeable people often recommend carrying prayers against demons with you, written down on a piece of paper. You can memorize one of the texts below, but many simply lose the ability to think clearly when encountering real evil spirits. Where can I meet her? Almost anywhere, for example, in a deserted place on the street, usually in the dark.

By the way, if you managed to see devils or other unclean entities, most likely they wished for it - evil spirits love to scare people. Perhaps you have the rudiments of clairvoyance and are able to see more than other people. In any case, do not look too closely at the horned figures, read the prayer from demons and believe that it will save you.

Obsession- a separate and extremely complex case. There are several options for getting rid of this problem - casting out demons from yourself, performing the ritual described below for another person, or getting help from a church, which has its own nuances.

What prayers should be read against demons?

So, how to get rid of demons if they have not yet taken possession of a person? The prayers described below are read during the expulsion of demons from the house or during a chance meeting with evil spirits for protection from it. By the way, apartments often become housing for her, especially those in which murders or suicides have occurred. Evil spirits also love the houses of binge alcoholics and drug addicts, apartments in which they often make trouble and sin in other ways. If you happen to have housing with otherworldly residents, you should expel them. Evil spirits will encourage suicide, drunkenness, and scandals. There will be no peaceful life with such neighbors.

One of the prayers that cast out demons is the “Our Father.” It can be read in any situation, it is universal. You can also read for protection and expulsion of evil spirits “May God rise again”, Jesus prayer, prayer to the Guardian Angel, prayer to Saint Cyprian and many other sacred texts that can protect against evil spirits. There are also little-known, but very powerful prayers aimed specifically at protection from evil spirits.

Prayer to the Guardian Angel from demons and other representatives of the population of hell

Special prayer for protection from any evil spirits

Prayer from the machinations of demons and devils

These prayers can be read anytime, anywhere when you need protection. During sprinkling or fumigation of the home, they can also be read. Their main purpose is to drive away evil spirits, to prevent them from frightening a believer, and to prevent them from causing the harm that they are capable of.

How to cast a demon out of yourself

It is known that exorcisms are usually carried out by priests, and for this they must obtain permission from the church diocese. But with the help of special prayers, the expulsion of demons from a person becomes possible at home. In any case, they will not be able to harm, and if it is not possible to drive away the dark entity, you can repeat the ritual, ask for help from another person - it is believed that it is easier to reprimand someone than yourself, you can also turn to church.

By the way, about the church - the demon sitting inside a person may not allow him to cross the threshold of the temple, because such entities experience serious discomfort in holy places. While reading the exorcising prayer, you must be alone - otherwise the entity may move into another person and leave you. The presence of icons, candles or incense is not required, but it is worth wearing a pectoral cross.

So, how to cast out a demon from yourself? This prayer is read during the manifestation of the activity of the evil spirit sitting within you. If you have the willpower to understand that a demon is forcing you to drink alcohol, be aggressive, or engage in other obscene activities, read this text:

You need to read the prayer until you feel better. While reading, you will feel resistance to the dark entity that has taken over your body, but willpower and faith in the help of the Lord can save you from demons, demons and devils. You can also read prayer to Saint Seraphim of Sarov, it also helps well against evil spirits and dark witchcraft. After expelling dark entities, protection should be put in place, but always Orthodox, with the help of prayers.

Prayers to cast out demons from another person

How to drive a demon out of yourself is quite clear - stay alone, wait for its manifestation and read a prayer until it becomes easier. But not everyone has the willpower to fight the dark forces on their own. And not every person is capable of exorcism. This requires strong nerves, unshakable faith in the help of the Lord and a desire to selflessly help one’s neighbor. You will also need an icon of the Savior, which is placed in front of the demoniac.

In general, there are many requirements for an exorcist. He should not have a zero in his date of birth. He must be older than the one he is scolding, and the name of the scolder must be different, not the same as that of the patient. There should not be a woman who is menstruating or a baby in the exorcist's house. He must be baptized, wear a cross on his body, and fast for nine days before the ceremony.

It is impossible to drive out evil spirits with this deduction on the waxing moon, or on the week when there are birthdays, weddings or christenings in the family of the exorcist or the possessed. When reading, you should not make mistakes, confuse words and stop until you reach the end. This is a very long prayer, but it is considered the most powerful. During the reading, the possessed person must sit on a chair in front of the icon. In especially severe cases, he is tied up. It is advisable not to keep sharp or cutting objects near the patient; he may have a seizure, during which people suffering from attacks from evil spirits do not control themselves very well.

So, the text of the prayer for obsession:

In general, there are many prayers from demons. It is quite possible to choose the right one for any situation - from protection from evil spirits that have arisen on your way or in the house, to expelling the demon sitting inside a person on your own.

PRAYER OVER THOSE POSSESSED BY EVIL SPIRITS

attributed to John Chrysostom

Eternal God, who delivered the human race from the captivity of the devil, deliver Your servant (name) from every action of unclean spirits, command the unclean and evil spirit and demon to retreat from the soul and from the body of Your servant (name), and not to remain, but to hide in him .

Let them flee in Thy holy name, and Thy only begotten Son, and Thy life-giving Spirit, from the creation of Thy hands.

May you, O Reverend One, have been cleansed from every temptation of the devil, and live righteously and piously, making us worthy of the most pure mysteries of Your only begotten Son and our God: with Him are you blessed and glorified, with the Most Holy, and Good, and Life-giving Spirit, now and ever , and forever and ever. Amen.

PRAYER AGAINST THE DEVIL

(compiled by the Optina elder schema-monk Anatoly Potapov).

Deliver me, Lord, from the seduction of the godless and evil-cunning Antichrist who is coming, and hide me from his snares in the hidden desert of Your salvation. Grant me, Lord, the strength and courage to firmly confess Your holy name, so that I will not retreat from the fear of the devil, and may not renounce You, my Savior and Redeemer, from Your Holy Church. But grant me, Lord, day and night to cry and cry for my sins, and have mercy on me, Lord, at the hour of Your Last Judgment. Amen.

Translation

We cast out you, the spirit of all uncleanness, every power of Satan, every hostile encroacher of hell, every legion, every assembly and sect of the devil, in the name and virtue of our Lord Jesus + Christ, uproot and flee from the Church of God, from souls created in the image of God and with the precious blood Lamb of the redeemed. + You no longer dare, most cunning serpent, to deceive the human race, persecute the Church of God and tear away God’s chosen ones and scatter them like wheat. + God Almighty commands you, + Whom you still want to be equal in your great pride; Who wants to save all people and lead them to the knowledge of the truth. God the Father commands you; + God the Son commands you; +God the Holy Spirit commands you. + The greatness of Christ, the eternal God of the Word incarnate, commands you, + Who, for the sake of the salvation of our race, fallen through your envy, humbled Himself and was obedient even to death; Who set His Church on a strong rock and promised that the gates of hell would not prevail against Her, for He Himself would remain with Her until the end of the age. The mystery of the Cross + and all the mysteries of the Christian faith commands you to nobility. + The high Mother of God, the Virgin Mary, commands you, + Who struck your most arrogant head from the first moment of Her immaculate conception in Her humility. The faith of the holy apostles Peter and Paul and the other apostles commands you. + The blood of the martyrs and all holy men and women commands you pious intercession. +Therefore, we conjure you, cursed serpent and legion of the devil, by the living God, + by the true God, + by the holy God, + by God, who so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life : stop deceiving people and pouring the poison of eternal damnation on them; stop harming the Church and putting Her freedom in chains. Be gone, Satan, inventor and master of all lies, enemy of human salvation. Make room for Christ, in whom you will not find anything you have done; make room for the One, Holy, Ecumenical and Apostolic Church, purchased by Christ at the price of His Blood. Bow down under the almighty Hand of God; tremble and run when we call on the holy and terrible name of Jesus, from which hell trembles, to which the Powers, Powers and Authorities of heaven humbly worship, to which the Cherubim and Seraphim continually sing the glory, crying out: Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God of Hosts. Let's pray. God of heaven, God of earth, God of angels, God of archangels, God of patriarchs, God of prophets, God of apostles, God of martyrs, God of confessors, God of virgins, God who has the power to grant life after death and rest after labor, for there is no other God but You , and it cannot be otherwise, for You are the Creator of everything visible and invisible, and Your kingdom will have no end: humbly before the greatness of Your glory, we pray that You would deign to free us by Your power from all possession of the spirits of hell, from their snares, from deceptions and wickedness and keep us safe and sound. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Word exorcismcomes from the Greek "exosis" - oath.

« exocate" means not so much to expel as "swear in a spirit or demon"or call on higher powers to force the creature to act contrary to its wishes.

It was extremely popular in the Middle Ages. The sinister Inquisition completely drove out demons, burning witches and testing various gadgets on sorcerers like “spanish boot" In modern times, exorcism gained popularity in 1973 after the release of the filmExorcist" The film had a great influence both on cinema (two Oscar awards, being included in the list of the 250 best films according to IMBD) and on society (there was clearly more work for psychiatrists and clergy - every day people who discovered the devil in themselves turned to churches and hospitals or your loved ones).

Exorcists, as a rule, are ministers of religious denominations. Although even here one cannot do without the ubiquitous psychics, witches and sorcerers. So, in Catholicism you can study to be an exorcist at the universityAthenaeum Pontificium Regina Apostolorum.

The most famous modern exorcist is the chief exorcist of the Holy See, priestGabriele Amorta. He is 86 years old, has served as chief exorcist for more than 25 years and is honorary president of the organization he founded.Exorcist Associations . Father Gabriel has been serving God for half a century and says he has encountered 70 thousand cases of demonic possession.

- We talk with the devil every day. I speak to him in Latin, he speaks Italian. We've been bickering and fighting for 20 years, - said the holy father in one of the interviews. Every day, the Vatican's chief evil spirit hunter examines an average of 10 people.

His fame was brought not only by his tireless fight against the devil, but also by his active propaganda activities. He is the author of several books. His book "The exorcist tells"was translated into one and a half dozen languages ​​and was republished about 20 times in Italy alone.

"THE FLAME PUNISHES,
THE FLAME BURNES,
EXORCIST CROSS
BURNING BRIGHTER
DESTROYING
SINTERING
TO THE ASHES THE CITADEL OF DARKNESS!”

We will not go into theological disputes and identify the similarities and differences of exorcism in different religions. It is much more interesting to tie this specific topic to the city of Irkutsk and try to find out - does it exist, a harsh Siberian exorcism?

Catholicism

Since the concept of exorcism is purely Catholic, I first of all turned to the Irkutsk Catholic Cathedral for information.

As the rector of the cathedral saidfather Vladimir, there were no examples of exorcism in our city. Although, as usually happens, schizophrenics and other inadequate individuals contacted us more than once. But it was not possible to find demons in these people, and they were sent to their address - to a medical institution.

Anthony Hopkins as a Catholic exorcist priest in The Ritual

Father Vladimir also added that even if such cases had happened, he would hardly have told me about them. The rite of exorcism is a purely personal matter between the possessed and the priest and requires complete confidentiality. In response to my remark that in 1991, in the United States, a Catholic rite of exorcism was shown on television (though without much improvement for the possessed girl - she later turned to a psychiatrist), Father Vladimir replied that the exorcist was, if not a fraudster, then certainly neglected his faith for the sake of popularity - that’s why the ritual didn’t turn out successful. According to the rector of the cathedral, the right to perform an exorcism must be obtained from the head of the diocese of the church. And not every Catholic priest is able to cast out a demon - this activity requires special preparation.

Bottom line - expecting a scary story in the spirit of the film "The Exorcist", I did not find anything mystical.

Orthodoxy

Orthodox priestfather Feofansuddenly announced thatanyone has his own demons, that is, he is, in fact, possessed.

- There are demons in every person. It is a great victory for Satan that he convinced people that he does not exist. Passions are the essence of demons. Demons attack people through thoughts. For example, they instill in a person hatred of another person. A person can be possessed by the demon of fornication. He sleeps with everyone or looks for all sorts of perversions, for example, pedophiles.

Every person is sick with sin, which means he does the will of demons. Repent means you will improve. Start doing the will of God, that is, start living according to the Gospel, be cured of sin, start praying to God, participating in church sacraments - and little by little you will be freed from the will of demons.

When a person becomes completely dependent on demons, he can do anything. That is why Christ gave power to his disciples to cast out demons. He said: “This race can only be driven out by prayer and fasting.” Previously, the disciples had more faith, but now I don’t know if there are such people.

When a person participates in the sacrament of Baptism, he wants to become Christian, then each priest reads incantatory prayers over this person. The main fighter against demons is the person himself - you need to correct and improve your soul, that is, yourself.

Bottom line - following Orthodoxy, it is worth recognizing that we are all, to one degree or another, exorcists - every day we fight with our inner demons. With varied success.

In the old days, all negativity was attributed to the influence of the devil, so spells to get rid of negativity and bad situations were called “from the devil.”

“Lord, Holy Father! Almighty God is eternal. Throw the Devil into the abyss from the servant of God (name). From the head, from the hair, from the top, from the crown, from the forehead, from the face, from the ears, from the nostrils, from the lips, from the tongue, from the subtongue, from the chest, from the heart, from all bodies, from the bones, from the veins, from the brain, from the thought, from the voice, from all its deeds. From youth, from all accomplishments - let it go into the ground. May the power of Christ, the son of God, be in him. He remains in worship and praise of the father, son and holy spirit.
I conjure you, devil, by raising Lazarus. I will slay you, O devil, who walked on the sea and tamed its waves. I conjure you, the devil, the holy angels and those who showed the greatness of their miracles and gave them power and strength. May they heal this disease (name) in every person!”

Spell of Pope Leo XIII against Satan and rebel angels:

In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

O glorious prince of the heavenly armies, holy Archangel Michael, protect us in our battle against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of the darkness of this age, against the spirits of wickedness in high places. Come to the aid of people created by God in His likeness and redeemed by Him at great price from the dominion of the devil. The Holy Church honors you as her guardian and protector; The Lord has entrusted to you to lead the souls of the redeemed to heaven. Therefore, pray to the God of Peace to crush Satan under our feet, so that he can no longer take people captive and harm the Church. Offer our prayers to the Almighty, so that He may pour out His mercy on us without delay; bridle the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, bind him and cast him into the abyss, so that he no longer deceives the nations.

In the name of Jesus Christ, our God and Lord, strengthened by the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin Mary, Blessed Michael the Archangel, Blessed Apostles Peter and Paul and all the saints, we confidently repel the malice and cunning of the devil.

May God arise, and may His enemies be scattered, and may those who hate Him flee from His presence. As smoke dissipates, You scatter them; As wax melts in the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

V. Look at the Cross of the Lord, flee the darkness of enemies.

R. He is victorious, Lion of the tribe of Judah, Root of David.

V. May Thy mercy, O Lord, descend upon us.

R. Great as is our hope in You.

We cast out you, the spirit of all uncleanness, every power of Satan, every hostile encroacher of hell, every legion, every assembly and sect of the devil, in the name and virtue of our Lord Jesus + Christ, uproot and flee from the Church of God, from souls created in the image of God and with the precious blood Lamb of the redeemed. + You no longer dare, most cunning serpent, to deceive the human race, persecute the Church of God and tear away God’s chosen ones and scatter them like wheat. + God Almighty commands you, + Whom you still want to be equal in your great pride; Who wants to save all people and lead them to the knowledge of the truth. God the Father commands you; + may God the Son rebuke you; + May God the Holy Spirit rebuke you. + The greatness of Christ, the eternal God of the Word incarnate, commands you, + Who, for the sake of the salvation of our race, fallen through your envy, humbled Himself and was obedient even to death; Who set His Church on a strong rock and promised that the gates of hell would not prevail against Her, for He Himself would remain with Her until the end of the age. The mystery of the Cross + and all the mysteries of the Christian faith commands you to nobility. + The high Mother of God, the Virgin Mary, commands you, + Who struck your most arrogant head from the first moment of Her immaculate conception in Her humility. The faith of the holy apostles Peter and Paul and the other apostles commands you. + The blood of the martyrs and all holy men and women commands you pious intercession. + Therefore we conjure you, cursed serpent and legion of the devil, by the living God, + by the true God, + by the holy God, + by God, who so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life : stop deceiving people and pouring the poison of eternal damnation on them; stop harming the Church and putting Her freedom in chains. Be gone, Satan, inventor and master of all lies, enemy of human salvation. Make room for Christ, in whom you will not find anything you have done; make room for the One, Holy, Ecumenical and Apostolic Church, purchased by Christ at the price of His Blood. Bow down under the almighty Hand of God; tremble and run when we call on the holy and terrible name of Jesus, from which hell trembles, to which the Powers, Powers and Authorities of heaven humbly worship, to which the Cherubim and Seraphim continually sing the glory, crying out: Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God of Hosts.

V. Hear, O Lord, my prayer.

R. And let my cry come to You.

V. May the Lord be with you.

R. And with your spirit.

Let's pray. God of heaven, God of earth, God of angels, God of archangels, God of patriarchs, God of prophets, God of apostles, God of martyrs, God of confessors, God of virgins, God who has the power to grant life after death and rest after labor, for there is no other God but You , and it cannot be otherwise, for You are the Creator of everything visible and invisible, and Your kingdom will have no end: humbly before Your royal greatness we prostrate ourselves and pray to You, by Your power, to free us from all possession of the spirits of hell, from their snares, from deceptions and from their furious rage; Deign, Lord, to grant us Your powerful protection and keep us safe and sound. We pray to You through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Deliver us from the wiles of the devil, O Lord.

So that Your Church can serve You in peace and freedom, we pray to You, hear us.

So that You may crush all the enemies of Your Church, we pray to You, hear us.

Saint Michael the Archangel, protect us in battle, be our protection from the excesses and machinations of the devil. May God show His power over him, we humbly pray. But you, prince of the heavenly army, cast Satan and with him the evil spirits, to the destruction of souls prowling in the world, with your God-given courage, cast into hell. Amen.

Prayer to the Queen of Angels, Conqueror of Satan.

Reverend Mother of God, direct Your irresistible army also against the messengers of hell among people; Frustrate the plans of the atheists and disgrace all who desire evil. Beg for them the grace of insight and conversion, so that they will honor the Triune God and You, the Most Holy One. Promote the victory of truth and right everywhere. Majestic Queen of Heaven, Most High Queen of Angels! From the beginning you received from God the power and mission to smite the head of the serpent of hell. Therefore, we humbly ask You: Your Heavenly legions came to our aid, so that, by Your order and thanks to Your power, they would take up arms against the spirits of evil, defeat them everywhere, thwart their daring plans and, finally, cast them into the abyss. Mighty Patroness, with the help of angelic spirits, spread Your holiness and grace over the entire earth! Protect with them the Houses of God, all holy places, faces and relics, especially the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. Prevent all sacrilege and destruction. O our Refuge, our beloved Mother! Filled with trust, we ask You and hope that You will accomplish this with ease. The angels, Your faithful servants, are at every moment just waiting for Your sign and burning with the desire to fulfill Your will. Heavenly Mother, finally protect both our property and our home from all attacks by visible and invisible enemies. Let Your holy Angels manage all this and spread throughout the earth the devotion, peace and joy of the Holy Spirit. Who is like God? Who is like You, Mary? Are you not the Queen of Angels and the Conqueror of Satan? O kind and affectionate Mother Mary, O Immaculate Bride of the King of all the pure in spirit, in whose form spiritual purity itself becomes visible, . You will always remain our love and hope, our protection and glory! Saint Michael, holy Angels and Archangels, protect us, protect us! Amen.

From "The Creation of the Holy Angels"

Detachments of the Heavenly army have come out, High Queen of Heaven, Queen of Angels! You have received from God the power and order to crush Satan's head. In humility we ask You: the troops of the Heavenly army have come out! Under Your leadership, they must fight the spirits of evil, must resist them everywhere, undermine their arrogance and cast them into the abyss. For who can compare with God? Kind, loving Mother of God. May You always be the subject of our love and hope! Mother of God, come the Holy Angels. May they protect me and drive the evil enemy far from me. You, Holy Angels and Archangels, protect and protect us. Holy Mary, come to the aid of the poor, strengthen the faint-hearted, comfort the suffering, ask for the people, pray for the flock, intercede for the virgins dedicated to God. Let everyone who honors Your holy memory experience Your help! AMEN.

Conspiracy against the Devil (drive out of home):

Conspiracy I.

Sew the coin over which the spell is cast into an amulet and carry it on yourself.

“You, damned and eternally condemned devils, by virtue of the words: Messiah, Emmanuel, Hosts, Adonai, Aeanatos, Ischiros and Tetragrammaton, we fetter, weaken and expel you from every place and house where this coin will be placed. Further, we order you, so that you do not have the power to harm the rear of the inhabitants with a plague, go, cursed, into fiery Gehenna; get wet in the abyss prepared for you and don’t dare to come here in the future. Thus God the Father+ and God the Son+ and God the Holy Spirit+ commands you. Get wet, like devils, eternally condemned, in the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, who will come again to judge the living and the dead and the whole universe with fire. Amen".

Conspiracy II.

“Get away, devil, from the temple and from this house, from the doors and from all four corners. You, the devil, have no part or participation, no place or rest, here is the cross of the Lord, the Mother of Christ, the Most Holy Theotokos, Saint Peter, the holy evangelists: John, Luke, Mark, Matthew, St. Archangels Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Ugasiel, Egudiel, Barahail. The heavenly powers are rejoicing, here are the holy Cherubim and Seraphim, St. Michael is now throughout the whole universe, along them St. Peter holds the regiments, holding a mace, here is the Nativity of the Baptist, here is for you the devil, there is no part and participation, no place and peace, no do dirty tricks to the devil, to the whole place, and to the house, and to man, and to cattle, and to all the servants of God, run from here to utter hell, where is your real refuge, and find yourself there. My word is strong, for the stone is amen, amen, amen.”

The demon told me his name - Benjamin. But he sits quietly as if he is not there. Benjamin, eldest son of the biblical patriarch Jacob. I'm trying to get rid of him.

Evgeniy, you probably already have a lot of experience in the question of how to get rid of a homesteader.
I also want to get rid of it, they write a lot of things, but I haven’t found a clear way. Please tell me what to do?
Is there any point in going to church for a reprimand? I don’t understand, if people are expelled from a crowd at the same time, then where do all these demons go? One will jump out, and another may come in instead......

You yourself attract them, all entities. You can try going to church, you can find exorcists, but you shouldn’t do this yourself! If a demon lives in you, then think about where you are living incorrectly and what you are doing incorrectly, the demon cannot just end up in you, and if you drive it out and you live as before, you will constantly exchange an awl for soap.

Really worthwhile and interesting article. I read and learned a lot of interesting things. Still, if I had a demon in me, I probably would not have decided on such a ritual myself. We still know little about this, but the description of how the demon comes out is frightening. In my opinion, everyone should do something in which they are a master. Exorcist is not just a title, but a calling. I don't want to take up anyone's space.

I felt strangely anxious after reading the article. Are the demons in me worried and afraid of my exoccistical tendencies?) Don’t be afraid, I definitely won’t come to you myself, live for now))) And now seriously. The topic is interesting, hundreds of films on it have been watched. It was interesting to read this article, a good selection of information. I don’t particularly believe in demons, or rather, I don’t believe that they can possess them, but if this happened to me, I would definitely run to church.

There was one little man in our house, people said that he was possessed. Such a strange one. Sometimes he laughs inappropriately, sometimes he glares and bares his teeth. Horrible in one word. It was scary to walk near him; people avoided him. I don’t know whether people were telling the truth about him or not, but he disappeared one day and was gone for a long time. And then a young man moved into his apartment. Quiet and decent. And only a year later we learned that they were two people. The transformation happened before our eyes.
I liked the article and inspired a story from my childhood. Thank you very informative!

Fascinating article. I read it like a mystical novel. Thank God I haven’t encountered such a phenomenon myself, and God forbid I encounter it. But I also think that personal expulsion cannot be done. It is not known how the Bes will behave in the process. It's better to trust the professionals.

My mother told me that when I was little they got an apartment when they moved out, that is, not in a new house, but after someone else. When we moved in, we didn’t know who lived there before. It was later that the neighbors told them that my aunt had hanged herself in our apartment. I was little, I don’t remember. Mom told me that there was hell in the apartment, they called the priest to light the apartment, it seemed to help.
I liked the article, it was interesting to read.

The article caused a double impression. I rather liked it, but I definitely won’t use it in practice. But to consider it as educational is quite okay. The world of demons and demons is subject to too powerful a force and it is not worth playing with it. Moreover, experiment with expulsion. If such a misfortune happened to you or one of your loved ones, I would advise you to go to church.

I read the article and came to a conclusion: lead a decent lifestyle, go to church and believe in God. No demons are afraid of you! Of course, these recipes of mine will not protect your home; a demon can settle here, regardless of your lifestyle and faith. But I support the majority opinion. It’s definitely not worth doing the expulsion yourself. Thanks for the article - interesting

What are you people talking about? one lives with a demon inside and tries to come to an agreement with it, the second asks for advice on how to get rid of it. Are you out of your mind? At the slightest suspicion, run to find a professional! This is not a joke, believe me. I don’t want to tell you how I myself encountered an evil spirit, I’m afraid my writing abilities are not enough, take my word for it, just DO NOT! Thank you for the article.

From a historical point of view, the article is true. Useful for the layman. But you still don’t need to put it into action. To be expelled, it is not enough to possess the qualities and virtues listed in the article. First of all, you need to be churched! That is, to believe and go to church, attend services and receive absolution, pray and know the church canon.
Thanks to the author for his efforts!

Useful article, I liked it! Of course, I’m not an angel and I’m sinning little by little. But I still want to believe that the demon in me will not like it. I go to church on holidays and there are icons at home. But if, God forbid, of course, I had to face the demon inside me... Most likely, I would not even try to get rid of it myself. When I imagine this picture (thanks to the movies), it’s creepy. I would start looking for some kind of magician or priest, but definitely not myself.

I went to a “knowledgeable” woman about one issue. On my second visit to her, it turned out that I had two “roommates”. They showed themselves. I experienced terrible stress, divorce, job loss, intensive care, loss of interest in life... So I got it. Now I'm fighting for myself. There are few exorcists. Mainly in Ukraine. There is one in Moscow, I’m going there.

I haven’t been able to get rid of demons for a whole year, what should I do?

Olesya, could you tell who?
